DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Referring to the drawings and initially to FIGS. 1-3, a circular saw having a saw arm angle adjusting device in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a base 11, a rotation shaft 21, a saw arm 31, a saw blade 41, and an adjusting device 51 for adjusting the angle of the saw arm 31.
The base 11 may be made with a disk shape, and has a center formed with a cutting slot 12.
The rotation shaft 21 is rotatably mounted on an outer edge of the base 11, and may be rotated relative to the base 11. The rotation shaft 21 has a distal end provided with a gear portion 22. A fixing bolt 23 is extended through the rotation shaft 21, and has one end which is extended into a bottom face of the base 11 and is provided with a hexagonal fixing nut 24 for fixing the rotation shaft 21 to prevent rotation of the rotation shaft 21.
The saw arm 31 has a first end pivotally mounted on the distal end of the rotation shaft 21, so that the saw arm 31 may swing.
The saw blade 41 is rotatably mounted on a raised second end of the saw arm 31, and may be rotated successively by input of an electric power. When the saw arm 31 is pressed to move toward the base 11, the saw blade 41 may be inserted into the cutting slot 12 of the base 11.
The adjusting device 51 is mounted on the bottom face of the base 11, and includes a drive shaft 52, a drive unit 53, a driven unit 54, and an adjusting unit 55.
The drive shaft 52 is an elongated rod, and has a first end extended into the bottom face of the base 11, and a second end exposed outward from the bottom face of the base 11. The drive shaft 52 may be moved axially in a push or pull manner.
The drive unit 53 is secured on the first end of the drive shaft 52 to move therewith. The drive unit 53 has a first side formed with a receiving hole 531 for receiving and securing the first end of the drive shaft 52 by bolts or the like, so that the drive unit 53 may be moved with the drive shaft 52. The receiving hole 531 of the drive unit 53 has a wall formed with a square-shaped first locking recess 533 which has a dimension greater than that of the receiving hole 531. The drive unit 53 has a second side formed with a hexagonal second locking recess 532 that may be used to receive and lock the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23 when the drive unit 53 is moved to abut the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23.
The driven unit 54 is rotatably mounted on the bottom face of the base 11. Thus, the driven unit 54 may be rotated and cannot be moved. The driven unit 54 has an inner wall formed with a through hole 541 for passage of the drive shaft 52. The driven unit 54 has one end provided with a square-shaped locking block 543 that may be inserted into the first locking recess 533 of the drive unit 53 when the drive unit 53 is moved to abut the locking block 543 of the driven unit 54. The driven unit 54 has an outer wall provided with a gear portion 542.
The adjusting unit 55 includes a shaft 551 rotatably mounted on the bottom face of the base 11, a first gear 552 secured on a first end of the shaft 551 and meshing with the gear portion 542 of the driven unit 54, and a second gear 553 secured on a second end of the shaft 551 and meshing with the gear portion 22 of the rotation shaft 21. Preferably, the bottom face of the base 11 is provided with two spaced support blocks 554 and 555 for supporting the shaft 551, so that the shaft 551 is rotatably mounted on the bottom face of the base 11. The second end of the shaft 551 is passed through the rotation shaft 21.
In operation, referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, the drive shaft 52 may be pushed into the bottom face of the base 11, and the drive unit 53 may be moved with the drive shaft 52 to move toward the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23, so that the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23 may be inserted into and secured in the second locking recess 532 of the drive unit 53. Then, the drive shaft 52 may be rotated to unscrew the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23, thereby releasing the rotation shaft 21 from the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23, so that the rotation shaft 21 may be rotated freely.
It is appreciated that, the drive unit 53 is not combined with the driven unit 54, and the drive shaft 52 is rotatably and movably mounted in the driven unit 54, so that when the drive shaft 52 is rotated, the driven unit 54 is not rotated. Thus, the first gear 552 of the adjusting unit 55 will not be rotated by the gear portion 542 of the driven unit 54.
At this time, the saw arm 31 may be directly pushed and pivoted, to proceed an adjustment action with a larger angle. In addition, the angle of the saw arm 31 may be adjusted in the following manner.
Referring to FIGS. 3 and 6, the drive shaft 52 may be pulled outward from the bottom face of the base 11, and the drive unit 53 may be moved with the drive shaft 52 to move toward the driven unit 54, so that the locking block 543 of the driven unit 54 may be inserted into and secured in the first locking recess 533 of the drive unit 53. Thus, the drive unit 53 may be combined with the driven unit 54, so that when the drive shaft 52 is rotated, the drive unit 53 may also be rotated with the drive shaft 52 to rotate the driven unit 54 which rotates the gear portion 542 which rotates the first gear 552 of the adjusting unit 55, so as to rotate the shaft 551 which rotates the second gear 553 of the adjusting unit 55, so as to rotate the gear portion 22 of the rotation shaft 21, so that the rotation shaft 21 may be pivoted through a determined angle. Thus, the pivot arm 31 may be pivoted by rotation of the rotation shaft 21 to move from the position as shown in FIG. 5 to the position as shown in FIG. 6, so as to micro-adjust the angle of the saw arm 31 relative to the base 11.
After the angle of the saw arm 31 relative to the base 11 is adjusted, the drive shaft 52 may be pushed into the bottom face of the base 11 again, and the drive unit 53 may be moved with the drive shaft 52 to move toward the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23, so that the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23 may be inserted into and secured in the second locking recess 532 of the drive unit 53. Then, the drive shaft 52 may be rotated to screw the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23, thereby fixing the rotation shaft 21 by the fixing nut 24 of the fixing bolt 23, so that the rotation shaft 21 cannot be rotated freely.
Accordingly, the second end of the drive shaft 52 is exposed outward from the bottom face of the base 11 to face the user, so that the user may directly operate the drive shaft 52 without having to move, so as to operate the adjusting device 51 for adjusting the angle of the saw arm 3 relative to the base 11 so that the user may adjust the angle of the saw arm 31 easily and conveniently.
In addition, the gear portion 542 of the driven unit 54 having a smaller tooth number may be used to drive the first gear 552 of the adjusting unit 55 having a greater tooth number, and the second gear 553 of the adjusting unit 55 having a smaller tooth number may be used to drive the gear portion 22 of the rotation shaft 21 having a greater tooth number, thereby saving manual energy, and thereby capable of micro-adjusting the angle of the saw arm 31 relative to the base 11.
Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claim or claims will cover such modifications and variations that fall within the true scope of the invention.
